I love wrapping! Give it here - I'll wrap it up:) I'll make it look so good - you wouldn't want to open it... I mean it. That's the kind of cocky wrapper I am. Half the fun of presents is - presentation... but for me, it's not all that easy to find just the right kind of paper that would say just enough about the season and stand out at the same time. So... I've come up with my own pattern for gift-wrap. I hope it ends up on a roll:)

My 'virtual' absence from the land of the creative blogging could only be explained by mountain of projects that I'm currently climbing. I'll post more often once I'll reach the top and take a good break.

Looking at the pictures above it has become clear to me that my love for turtlenecks has no borders. Somebody stop me:)... Everybody and their cousin (in my pictures) are wearing a turtleneck sweater. Well... at least it's fall appropriate:)

Every time I sit down to blog the first sentence that enters my mind is always 'the last few days have been incredibly busy...' - and than I think... well, which few days haven't been incredibly busy? When was the last time I thought 'boy... what am I to do with all this extra time?' The answer of course is... I can't remember.

Last Saturday I've hosted Margo's little B-day party... and although everything went fabulously smooth and all children left alive and happy... I had to lie down for an hour with eyes closed... before the clean up and other 'to do' items would take over again. How much 'busy' could a girl take...

Turns out... just this much... because, this morning, after I turned on the computer ... I decided to turn it off and take a 'mental health day'. Girls were home enjoying their 'PD' day. Mike was home. My tv was home... we had a good day:)

It's been tough to find some time for personal work. My plate has been full and my glass half empty... but nothing brings the good spirits back (for me) like a freshly baked pattern:) A few berries, a few butterflies and a whole lota color. Hope it brings cheer to you too.
